ably ls only the forerunner of further estrangement between this country and Germany.
Professor Carus explained at some length the various phases of the recent trade agreements which the United States made with several foreign countries. It was his opinion that the recent Huli trade agreements were not destined to be of too great consequence. He said that lt was more or less a matter of whether some or litUe advantage was better than none at all. The speaker illustrated his theory with a very definite series of examples taken from the records of recent foreign trade developments.
VIEWS EXPLAINED
Professor Carus, in explaining his views on the subject of recent foreign trade agreements, said that he wished to make it clear that he' considered that any agreement which in any way sped up trade between two countries was of distinct advantage to both countries involved.
"The mere 18 or 19 agreements already made by our country with certain foreign countries, is only the beginning," Professor Carus continued. He said that inevitably hundreds more would follow under the present setup.
AGREEMENTS CONSIDERED
The Hull trade agreements with South American countries were especially considered in Professor Cams’ discussion. He quoted at some length from the specifications included in these agreements and their economic benefits.
The speaker concluded his talk by discussing the various problems that would arise over the shipping question with regards to the new trade agreements and the effect that these new foreign trade pacts would have on the ports of the various countries involved.

PRAGUE, March 15—(l'.P*—Chan-cellor Adolf Hitler tonight entered | Prague to proclaim his Nazi pro-| tectorate over the last remnants of shattered Czechoslovakia. Hostile Jeering Czechs had been driven ! from the streets and to their homes by a military curfew.
The people of Prague, left without even a national name by Hitler’s swift smashing of their postwar republic, greeted the German troops with derisive “pfuls.”
FIRST INSULTS TO ARMY It was the first time that Hitler’s army—making Its third bloodless conquest ln a year—had been publicly insulted.
Nazis said that Hitler showed his bravery by coming to Prague ln the midst of such hostility.
The 8 p.m. curfew had been imposed a few hours before his arrival when the anger of the crowds ln the streets became acute, threatening actual outbreaks.
HITLER ENTERS PALACE Hitler, who crossed the border by automobile, went Immediately to historic Hradzin palace without pausing in the streets.
The palace, a medieval pile of stone perched on a hill above the city, was the home of Thomas G. Masaryk, the “father of Czechoslovakia,” and later of Eduard Benes, who was driven from the presidency and Into exile in the United States by Hitler’s dismemberment of Czechoslovakia last September. OUTBREAKS START Terror and even bloodshed extended over a great part of torn and tattered Czechoslovakia.
